I went and read through the other thread. So is the point of this thread is to argue that:

1) the Iraq invasion is "THE darkest moments in human history" - Dawbawss

and 2) US is currently one of the worst nation in the world

Wat. There's so many other historical events and countries/nations/states/kingdoms/empires/whatever that better fit the criteria. IMO, the first point is definitly not true, there's much worst moment in human history

As for the second point, the problem here is time span, scope and the subjectivity of the whole thing. What sort of timespan and period are we looking at here? One could make the argument that Britian is the worst country since in the past, they went around almost the entire world colonizing and killing all the natives and you know, gave birth to America and the whole "20 million people in 37 victim nation"

Or you could also say Russia is bad because of the Great Purge, Holodomor and countless other proxy wars that cause even more deaths and don't forget, because of them, they spread communisim which killed and affect the live of even more people

The whole thing is frankly absurd. It'll probably end up like the infamous "which country have the most impact on modern world" thread
